1. If you’ve enjoyed/found my threads useful and have some disposable income would you consider donating to OMF? They fund research that will help those of us with #MECFS #LongCOVID #PTLDS & #fibromyalgia.
2. My life has basically been on hold for over a decade since I first developed ME/CFS. It took me until 2020 to get a diagnosis. Delayed diagnoses like mine are common because there are currently no labs that doctors can order to definitively diagnose ME/CFS.
3. Diagnosis is by process of elimination where doctors run tests for other possible diseases and rule them out to narrow it down to ME/CFS.

Check out this interview I did w/ @resiapretorius 👉 Resia + team have published dozens of papers detailing how inflammatory products created by #bacteria/#viruses in human blood can drive clotting, red blood cell deformability, vasculature problems etc: microbeminded.com/2020/08/06/int… Image
2/ Conditions studied by Resia and team include #Alzheimer’s + #Parkinson’s. For example they identified toxic gingipain proteins created by oral #pathogen p. gingivalis in the blood of Parkinson’s patients, and showed how the gingipains can increase hypercoagulation ImageImage
3/ I am truly excited about the fact that we are working to send her team #ME/CFS and #PTLDS (chronic #lyme disease) blood samples that they will analyze for many of the same issues 🙌
